EcoTeams, 26 Oct-16 Nov, various locations

Free training for the next generation of keen green students

The NUS and Global Action Plan have teamed up to inspire and empower students to set up new ‘EcoTeams’ - groups of friends who meet fortnightly to reduce their environmental impact.

EcoTeam leaders are given resources and support so that they can set up and lead teams taking positive action on rubbish and shopping, household energy, water and travel.

A number of free training days are being held between September and November 2010 to help students develop sustainability and leadership skills, as well as connect with likeminded people from regional universities.
